The new trailer for Captain America 2: The Winter
Soldier debuted about an hour ago – and it’s a corker. Fans will love
Cap’s SHIELD uniform, our first glimpse of the Falcon in action, some Russo
Brothers comedy and yet another giant piece of CGI machinery crashing,
collapsing and otherwise crunching like a beer can.

And you can read all about that on other blogs. What we’re
interested in are shots of Cleveland,
where a nice slice of Cap 2 was shot
last spring. We get a decent amount in this first trailer. Here’s what we
spotted. If you see something we missed, comment below :

0:52. Ok, we don’t get much at 52 seconds in, but we do get Anthony Mackie in the back of an SUV driving along what probably is Lakeshore Blvd. downtown.

0:56: Ah, here we go. This is Euclid Ave heading west, heading toward
the corner of Euclid and E. 9th. If you’re a Spider-Man fan, you
might recognize this intersection and stretch of road as the same one where
Spidey battled Sandman in Spider-Man 3. There’s
the Huntington Bank building and PNC just ahead of that

0:58: Just after that, we cut to the Shoreway along Route 2
near what’s now First Energy Stadium. This is the big scene that shut down
traffic in Cleveland
and had everyone in a tizzy. Here the Winter Soldier approaches a vehicle he
just shot up.

1:09: More from that scene. This time, the Winter Soldier
and his henchman continue the battle. Pretty sure that’s the Courthouse we see
behind our friends (and an Ohio
flag – wonder if that’ll get the CGI treatment).

1:10: The hits just keep on coming. Here’s more from the Shoreway,
looking West, I’d say. Think of the work it took to cover up that billboard?
Anyone remember what it was for? Local company?

1:41: Fairly certain this shot of Cap takes place under the
Shoreway bridge near the Courthouse. The crew shot a couple battles under her,
including one with Black Widow shooting up at the Winter Soldier. But not sure.

1:42: This is definitely downtown, though I can’t tell
exactly where. Anybody know? It looks near Lakeshore, near the old Convention
Center.

1:43: More Shoreway action that leads into a longer action
scene that took place along Lakeshore
Blvd.

Tina Fey is taking a serious turn, producing 67 Shots, a film about the 1970 Kent State shootings. The movie applied for the Ohio Film Tax Incentive earlier this year and plans to film in and around KSU sometime in 2018.

67 Shots focuses on events that led up to the shooting deaths of four students by Ohio National Guardsmen. The title comes from the numbers of shots those guardsmen fired into the unarmed crowd of protestors. Fey is producing alongside Jeff Richmond, her husband and a Kent State alum. Jay Roach, best known for the Austin Powers and Meet the Fockers franchises, will helm the project. Roach is making more socially and politically aware films at this stage in his career, including Trumbo and Game Change. The film is based on the book 67 Shots: Kent State and the End of American Innocence and is adapted by award-winning playwright Stephen Belber.
